American history in the twentieth century has recorded the 

amazing achievements of the Federal Reserve bankers. First, the 

outbreak of World War I, which was made possible by the funds 
available from the new central bank of the United States. Second, 
the Agricultural Depression of 1920. Third, the Black Friday Crash on 

Wall Street of October, 1929 and the ensuing Great Depression. 

Fourth, World War II. Fifth, the conversion of the assets of the United 
States and its citizens from real property to paper assets from 1945 

to the present, transforming a victorious America and foremost 

world power in 1945 to the world’s largest debtor nation in 1990. 
Today, this nation lies in economic ruins, devastated and destitute, 

in much the same dire straits in which Germany and Japan found 
themselves in 1945. Will Americans act to rebuild our nation, as 

Germany and Japan have done when they faced the identical 
conditions which we now face--or will we continue to be enslaved 

by the Babylonian debt money system which was set up by the 

Federal Reserve Act in 1913 to complete our total destruction? This 
is the only question which we have to answer, and we do not have 

much time left to answer it.

Because of the depth and the importance of the information which 
I had developed at the Library of Congress under the tutelage of 

Ezra Pound, this work became the happy hunting ground for many 
other would-be historians, who were unable to research this 
material for themselves. Over the past four decades, I have 

become accustomed to seeing this material appear in many other 

books, invariably attributed to other writers, with my name never 
mentioned. To add insult to injury, not only my material, but even 

my title has been appropriated, in a massive, if obtuse, work called 
"Secrets of the Temple--the Federal Reserve". This heavily advertised 
book received reviews ranging from incredulous to hilarious. Forbes 

Magazine advised its readers to read their review and save their 
money, pointing out that "a reader will discover no secrets" and that 
"This is one of those books whose fanfares far exceed their merit." 
This was not accidental, as this overblown whitewash of the Federal 
Reserve bankers was published by the most famous nonbook 

publisher in the world.

After my initial shock at discovering that the most influential literary 
personality of the twentieth century, Ezra Pound, was imprisoned in 
"the Hellhole" in Washington, I immediately wrote for assistance to a 
Wall Street financier at whose estate I had frequently been a guest. 

I reminded him that as a patron of the arts, he could not afford to
